To ride the currents, what an experience! Resistance contributes to seeming effortlessness. Abandon and trust do too.
My prayer response:
May I embody the complexity of who You created me to be with acceptance, grace, and joy.
Biblical touchstones:
- God said, “Let the waters bring forth swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the dome of the sky.” Genesis 1:20
- Praise God from the earth, you sea monsters and all deeps, fire and hail, snow and frost, stormy wind fulfilling his command! Mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars! Wild animals and all cattle, creeping things and flying birds! Psalm 148:7-10
- Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
Matthew 6:26
Invitation to prayer:
What prayers are emerging from your heart, mind, and body? Pray them now. Let them lead you where you need to go.
